    very solid game. It is clearly seen that with each addition, developers improve their skills. And I'm also very good at the idea of ​​releasing such massive add-ons - in fact, entire campaigns.

    I think that this game is a big step forward in SPELLFORCE 3 franchise. New mechanics, ideas, and an incredible story. I had a feeling that I played in something more than an RTS. If you like RTS and an exciting journey, this is a must-have game.
    Side notes:
    As a minimum, I think that this game deserves a nomination at Game Awards, which is a shame that it had not.

    I was never a big fan of games revolving around trolls, orc and comparable things, but Fallen God caught me by surprise. Within minutes I was into the story of the characters and was excited to see more. It even got me more involved than the the main and Soul Harvest entry and I am really hoping it is not the final entry of the 3 series.

    I was rather bored for the first few hours, maybe because of the 50h I'd just spent with SpellForce. But it grew on me and I rather enjoyed it. Mugwa be praised, it nice day.

    Date Completed: 2022-03-01
    Playtime: 20h
    Enjoyment: 8/10
    Recommendation: If you liked the other two, definitely.

    This is what was missing in the original SpellForce 3.
    Firstly an interesting story and fantasy. The second is a reference to the SpellForce 1 and the trolls are similar in some places to the original SpellForce. Cool 3d start menu with with the trolls leader. RPG part got better, added crafting ( not super, but interesting), more skills, you can get confused.

    Firstly an interesting story and fantasy. The second is a reference to the SpellForce 1 and the trolls are similar in some places to the original SpellForce. Cool 3d start menu with with the trolls leader. RPG part got better, added crafting ( not super, but interesting), more skills, you can get confused. I will not talk about the graphics and design, everything is clear. Trolls just look bigger than other races, I have already spoken about the fact that it is impossible to see the details of units through their small size ( they got lost in such colorful graphics) - but the trolls are not in danger.
    Interestingly thought up with the recruitment of troops and training - this is what fans talked about, ( a different gameplay mechanics than in other races). Dialogues have become more interesting. Your decisions affect the plot. An interesting thing with training a young troll ( education throughout the game).
    Definitely good work, you can get stuck for a long time in such game.

    - The one big mistake that developers made was that they did not release 6 races at once in main game, it spoil the reputation of SpellForce Franchise. Also was some imperfections which everyone knows. Oh, It was possible to release a full-fledged game with all these features from Soul Harvest and Fallen Good, but...

    I bet 8.
    For higher ratings, there is a lack of a more thoughtful RPG. All the same, this is a cut-down version ( banal skill tree from top to bottom, not enough statistics, not enough different types of equipments and other pretty well-known RPG functions) . And of course there is not enough 3D first person camera view in dialogues, as if you are torn off from the game world, - this is in comparison with SF1.
    I do not have any big questions about the RTS part in such view, maybe the economy must be the little bit different ( gathering food - not only a hunting hut) - again looking at SF1.
    And my opinion or or logical conclusion, - in view of today's technology, something more ambitious could be done.

    Well, everything should improve in this world starting from people ending with games. I hope that someday I will hear about the true SpellFoce next generation game. Rune...    … Expand

    A huge disappointment compared to spellforce 1 and 2.

    It's a shame they couldn't simply copy the old games, and chose instead to make a broken version of dawn of war.

    Why can't these devs have their own ideas and chose instead to steal ideas from others? Even the trolls expansion is a blatant copy from battle realms.

    Fallen God is a large stand-alone expansion that succeeds in differentiating itself from its predecessors. The developers managed to diversify the experience (not spectacularly though) and did a terrific job at depicting the specific nature of the new race – trolls. [13/2020, p.72]

    SpellForce 3: Fallen God provides players with more SF3 goodness. The story, told from an unusual perspective, shows you a gripping tale of a dwindling tribe trying to survive as opposed to previous instances of Saving The World.

    Here come the trolls. Fallen God is a superb expansion that adds worthy content to a good game.
